     that makes it easier to write and also read archetypes.

     You can now use "attacktype fire poison" instead of computing "fire +

     You can even mix values and text (ie "attacktype 1028 death" to add

     If I were to do it I would have implemented this behavior in the server 
instead of in the collecting of archetypes (that way it could be used in 
maps as well), but this is fine too.

     I'm not sure what you mean. CrossEdit reads the archetypes exactly as 
the server does. It won't know the difference because it will read the 
archetypes after they've been collected and therefore after the collect 
script has converted the attacktype values.
